Eagle Bulk Shipping Inc. Reports First Quarter 2013 Results
NEW YORK, May 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Eagle Bulk Shipping Inc. (Nasdaq: EGLE) today announced its results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013.
For the First Quarter:
- Net reported income of $1.4 million or $0.08 per share (based on a weighted average of 16,966,070 diluted shares outstanding for the quarter), compared with net loss of $17.4 million, or $1.11 per share, for the comparable quarter of 2012.
- Net revenues of $72.2 million, compared to $52.6 million for the comparable quarter in 2012. Gross time charter and freight revenues of $73.6 million, compared with $54.8 million for the comparable quarter of 2012.
- EBITDA, as adjusted for exceptional items under the terms of the Company's credit agreement, was $32.5 million for the first quarter of 2013, compared with $13.8 million for the first quarter of 2012.
- Fleet utilization rate of 99.1%.
Sophocles N. Zoullas, Chairman and CEO, commented, "Conditions in the dry bulk market remain challenging and, for the most part, unchanged from our most recent earnings report. Though vessel supply dynamics are steadily improving, they have not yet aligned with demand fundamentals. Our focus in this environment continues to emphasize a flexible, opportunistic chartering strategy, access to the relatively stable minor bulk trade, and operational excellence and efficiency."
Results of Operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2013 and 2012
For the first quarter of 2013, the Company reported net income of $1,374,270 or $0.08 per share, based on a weighted average of 16,966,070 diluted shares outstanding. In the comparable first quarter of 2012, the Company reported net loss of $17,433,529 or $1.11 per share, based on a weighted average of 15,750,821 diluted shares outstanding.
Gross time and voyage charter revenues in the quarter ended March 31, 2013 were $73,618,991, compared with $54,823,130 recorded in the comparable quarter in 2012. The increase in revenue is attributable to the settlement agreement with KLC, pursuant to which the Company recognized revenue of approximately $32.8 million, offset by lower time charter rates earned by the fleet and a marginal decrease in voyage charter revenues. Gross revenues recorded in the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 include an amount of $10,280,559 and $1,228,764, respectively, relating to the non-cash amortization of fair value below contract value of time charters acquired of which $10,106,247 relates to the KLC settlement agreement in the quarter ended March 31, 2013. Brokerage commissions incurred on revenues earned in the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 were $1,396,638 and $2,206,730, respectively. Net revenues during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, were $72,222,353 and $52,616,400, respectively.
Total operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 were $47,420,291 compared with $60,118,356 recorded in the first quarter of 2012. The Company operated 45 vessels in both first quarters of 2013 and 2012. The decrease in operating expenses resulted primarily from a reduction in the allowance for accounts receivable of approximately $3,438,145, lower professional fee costs and compensation expenses in general and administrative expenses and a gain realized from the settlement agreement with KLC of $3,331,692. The decrease in depreciation and amortization expense is attributable to a lower drydock amortization. In addition, there was a reduction in charter hire expenses as none was incurred during the quarter ended March 31, 2013.
EBITDA, adjusted for exceptional items under the terms of the Company's credit agreement, was $32,524,714 for the first quarter of 2013, compared with $13,813,999 for the first quarter of 2012. (Please see below for a reconciliation of EBITDA to net income / (loss).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Net cash provided by operating activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, was $1,248,839, compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $2,653,413 during the corresponding three-month period ended March 31, 2012. The decrease was primarily due to lower rates on charter renewals.
Net cash used by investing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, was $49,994, compared with net cash provided by investing activities of $338,400 during the corresponding three-month period ended March 31, 2012.
Net cash used by financing activities during the three-month period ended March 31, 2013, was $48,000, compared to none in 2012.
As of March 31, 2013, our cash balance was $19,270,813, compared to a cash balance of $18,119,968 at December 31, 2012. Also recorded in Restricted Cash is an amount of $276,056, which collateralizes letters of credit relating to our office leases.

Disclosure of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
EBITDA represents operating earnings before extraordinary items, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, and income taxes, if any. EBITDA is included because it is used by certain investors to measure a company's financial performance. EBITDA is not an item recognized by U.S. GAAP and should not be considered a substitute for net income, cash flow from operating activities and other operations or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States or as a measure of profitability or liquidity. EBITDA is presented to provide additional information with respect to the Company's ability to satisfy its obligations including debt service, capital expenditures, and working capital requirements. While EBITDA is frequently used as a measure of operating results and the ability to meet debt service requirements, the definition of EBITDA used herein may not be comparable to that used by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.
Our term loan agreement requires us to comply with financial covenants based on debt and interest ratio with extraordinary or exceptional items, interest, taxes, non-cash compensation, depreciation and amortization ("Credit Agreement EBITDA"). Therefore, we believe that this non-U.S. GAAP measure is important for our investors as it reflects our ability to meet our covenants. The following table is a reconciliation of net income/(loss), as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, to the Credit Agreement EBITDA:

Capital Expenditures and Drydocking
Our capital expenditures relate to the purchase of vessels and capital improvements to our vessels which are expected to enhance the revenue earning capabilities and safety of these vessels.
In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, the Company's other major capital expenditures include funding the Company's maintenance program of regularly scheduled drydocking necessary to preserve the quality of our vessels as well as to comply with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations. Although the Company has some flexibility regarding the timing of its dry docking, the costs are relatively predictable. Management anticipates that vessels are to be drydocked every two and a half years. Funding of these requirements is anticipated to be met with cash from operations. We anticipate that this process of recertification will require us to reposition these vessels from a discharge port to shipyard facilities, which will reduce our available days and operating days during that period.
Drydocking costs incurred are deferred and amortized to expense on a straight-line basis over the period through the date of the next scheduled drydocking for those vessels. One vessel drydocked in the three months ended March 31, 2013. The following table represents certain information about the estimated costs for anticipated vessel drydockings in the next four quarters, along with the anticipated off-hire days:

Glossary of Terms:
Ownership days: The Company defines ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in its fleet has been owned. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that is recorded during a period.
Chartered-in under operating lease days: The Company defines chartered-in under operating lease days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which the Company chartered-in vessels.
Available days: The Company defines available days as the number of ownership days less the aggregate number of days that its vessels are off-hire due to vessel familiarization upon acquisition, scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and the aggregate amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels. The shipping industry uses available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.
Operating days: The Company defines operating days as the number of its available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to any reason, including unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.
Fleet utilization: The Company calculates fleet utilization by dividing the number of our operating days during a period by the number of our available days during the period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company's efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys or vessel positioning. Our fleet continues to perform at very high utilization rates.
